This of course means raising additional funds for the construction of the exhibit and the technology that goes with it. This year’s fundraiser will be used in part to help us cover the costs associated with a quality exhibit that weaves many stories and memories from WWII into an enriching experience for visitors. \nPlease help us reach our goal to raise $25\,000 by becoming an event sponsor\, purchasing an event ticket\, and by participating in the auction. \nTickets are $60/member and $65/non-member.
